[00:19:54]<Gabe_W> im just going to go with threading, its mainly for i/o functions any way
[00:21:01]<Gabe_W> I almost broke down and re-wrote it in C
[00:21:16]<Gabe_W> but i would like to go outside and see the sun sometime soon
[00:21:52]-!- bedah has quit [Quit: Ex-Chat][00:22:04]<Gabe_W> im loosing pigmentation in my skin, and my pupils won't adjust to light any more

[00:22:58]<Gabe_W> lol
[00:24:15]<Gabe_W> who knew programming was so fun?
[00:24:22]<Gabe_W> everyone kept telling me how boring it was
[00:24:53]<Gabe_W> ever since i learned it, i can't stop doing it. im addicted
[00:25:48]<FinboySlick> Gabe_W: Rewriting linuxcnc all in the same language should keep you busy for a little while.
[00:26:00]<Aero-Tec> JT-Shop: sorry for the delay in getting back to you
[00:26:09]<jdh> what language?
[00:26:16]<Aero-Tec> yes Ubuntu
[00:26:21]<Gabe_W> im not that interested in LinuxCNC
[00:26:35]<Gabe_W> i just use it for 'hal"
[00:26:38]<Gabe_W> :)
[00:27:19]<Gabe_W> i decided to learn C and Python
[00:27:26]<Aero-Tec> Gabe_W: what computer language are you using for writing programs?
[00:27:28]<Gabe_W> i had already had experience in C
[00:27:42]<FinboySlick> Gabe_W: They'd be my two choices too.
[00:27:47]<Aero-Tec> so your hooked on C?
[00:27:47]<r00t4rd3d> how you get it working with 12.04?
[00:27:58]<Gabe_W> magic :)
[00:28:20]<r00t4rd3d> i was just wondering your method as i know its possible
[00:28:28]<Aero-Tec> C or C++?
[00:28:51]<Gabe_W> actuall the code is( up, up, left, right, left, R1, R1,analog right)
[00:29:01]<Gabe_W> that will get it working on 12.04
[00:29:17]<r00t4rd3d> great, another smart ass to add to the group
[00:29:20]<Gabe_W> lol
[00:29:27]<Gabe_W> this WillenCMD
[00:29:34]<Gabe_W> this is my real name :)
[00:29:34]<r00t4rd3d> oh
[00:29:40]<FinboySlick> Gabe_W: Did you use an old kernel or did you manage to hack realtime into a modern kernel?
[00:29:41]<Gabe_W> so i have been here a while
[00:29:55]<r00t4rd3d> did you follow a guide for 12.04?
[00:29:59]<r00t4rd3d> ive seen one
[00:30:07]<r00t4rd3d> never tried it though
[00:30:09]<Gabe_W> yes, but its not perfect
[00:30:17]<Gabe_W> i had to make a few changes
[00:30:31]<Aero-Tec> you should write up the corrections
[00:30:48]<r00t4rd3d> and rework a livecd
[00:31:06]<r00t4rd3d> so all can easily do it
[00:31:13]<Aero-Tec> get the corrections into the docs for EMC
[00:31:42]<Gabe_W> im still working on grub, it won't show the kernel in the menu at startup
[00:31:54]<r00t4rd3d> what guide did you follow?
[00:31:55]<Gabe_W> you have to select previous kernel
[00:32:18]<Gabe_W> you also can't get the linuxcnc-dev from the deb repo either
[00:33:01]<r00t4rd3d>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.emc.user/34836[00:33:03]<Aero-Tec> Gabe_W: what is it your doing with EMC?

[00:34:25]<Aero-Tec> C?
[00:34:49]<Gabe_W> sometimes, but i write hal components to control any real time code
[00:35:00]<Gabe_W> python is the front end
[00:35:15]<Gabe_W> use the hal module
[00:35:21]<Gabe_W> to create pins
[00:35:22]<Aero-Tec> you should write up a how to manual so others can do the same thing

[01:31:15]<Gabe_W> i remember those eraser looking things in the center of the keyboard
[01:31:22]<Gabe_W> they still have those?
[01:31:23]<FinboySlick> Yup. They rock.
[01:31:23]<Gabe_W> :)
[01:31:48]<FinboySlick> It's right on home row.
[01:32:20]<FinboySlick> And it won't drag when you're trying to click or other trackpad-y nonsense.
[01:32:48]<Gabe_W> i love when i type, and it randomly jumps like 400 lines up
[01:32:55]<Gabe_W> thats my favorite
[01:33:14]<FinboySlick> So yeah. Next laptop, go for something that has one of those, you won't regret it.
[01:33:19]<Gabe_W> its a game, i play when i want to edit line 37 i got to 400 and try to magically get up there
[01:34:04]<Gabe_W> i can disable it while typing but then i have to wait for it to release and i don't have the patients
[01:34:48]<FinboySlick> Gabe_W: To me, that's just a bandaid solution on a poor design.
[01:35:06]<Gabe_W> i can say that about half the things i own
[01:35:40]<Gabe_W> except for linux, i really am pleased with how stable it is, linuxcnc, is bullet proof
[01:35:51]<Gabe_W> i first started using cough cough "mach3" cough
[01:36:05]<Gabe_W> even payed for it.... i know shame on me
[01:36:13]<Gabe_W> but i was ignorant
[01:36:38]<Gabe_W> actually the customer paid for it
[01:36:56]<Gabe_W> i have only paid for one piece of software, that was pro-tools 9
[01:37:11]<FinboySlick> Gabe_W: And Solidworks, right?
[01:37:13]<Gabe_W> the rest i have found on the ground or one in give aways
[01:37:18]<Gabe_W> won*
[01:37:49]<Gabe_W> no i found solidworks on a cd someone dropped at the machine show
[01:38:01]<Gabe_W> crazy i know... but finder's keepers
[01:40:06]<Gabe_W> there are 3 of the .conf for synaptics
[01:40:32]<Gabe_W> any idea how to determine the appropriate one, i wonder if its in the .profile in the home directory
[01:41:16]<Gabe_W> im becoming pretty familiar with linux... a slow and steady process i actually prefer command line. its like going back in time but its faster i swear
[01:41:54]<Gabe_W> i can copy or make a link to a file faster than if i used nautilus anyone else agree?

[02:33:50]<Gabe_W> it worked for a while but im back
[02:39:42]<Gabe_W> i think the saying "why re-invent the wheel" is a horrible phrase
[02:41:14]<Gabe_W> I'ts just like when my boss tells me "thats the way we have been doing it for years, why should fix it if it
[02:41:21]<Gabe_W> s not broken
[02:41:21]<Jymmm> No, but "We need to talk" is.
[02:41:56]<Gabe_W> my comment back is are you still watching a black and white tv? they said no, well did your's break or did you just want a color.
[02:42:23]<Gabe_W> if we lived by those philosophies we would still be primitive cave dwelling creatures
[02:42:39]<Gabe_W> we build a house when this cave is already here
[02:43:09]<Jymmm> but thats inventing a house, not another cave.
[02:43:48]<Gabe_W> no the cave is a house, a dwelling place where one lives, a house doesn't have a material requirement
[02:43:53]<Jymmm> The "if it aint broke" is mostly the definition of "broke"
[02:44:08]<toastydeath> "why re-invent the wheel" is usually an admonishment against "not invented here" syndrome
[02:44:22]<Jymmm> a cave is a dweeling for millions of bats for millions of years
[02:44:41]<Gabe_W> so i should move out of my cave then?
[02:44:47]<Gabe_W> because bats where here first?
[02:45:07]<Jymmm> Which point are you arguing? wheel or broke?
[02:46:08]<Gabe_W> both
[02:46:20]<Jymmm> you cant, they are diffeent things.
[02:47:19]<Gabe_W> true but both are incorrect
[02:47:37]-!- archivist_herron has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds][02:47:42]<Gabe_W> just saying in general... most don't make any sense
[02:48:06]<toastydeath> rather than seeking to understand advice, it looks like you're merely arguing against it without first considering it
[02:48:15]<Jymmm> theres no need for a school kid to go out and make their own pencils, when you can buy 24 for $1 (wheel). But if the kids wants a mechanical pencil so no have to ha a sharpener, sure (broke)
[02:50:25]<Gabe_W> so since you can buy 24 pencils for $1 you should just accept that?
[02:50:44]<Jymmm> shouldn't reinvent the wheel
[02:51:18]<Gabe_W> i disagree say you develop a material that is just like the led or graphite but never breaks or needs sharpening
[02:51:32]<Gabe_W> now you only need one
[02:51:35]<Jymmm> that's not wheel, that's broke
[02:51:48]<Jymmm> "if it aint broke, but it is!"
[02:52:06]<Jymmm> Like I said, they are two different things.
[02:52:25]<toastydeath> password storage.
[02:52:38]<Jymmm> One is replication the other is innovation.
[02:52:41]<toastydeath> nearly every website develops their own crypto and password storage/transmission
[02:52:47]<toastydeath> despite having NO domain knowledge.
[02:53:02]<Jymmm> toastydeath: Nah, that's just ego
[02:53:04]<toastydeath> now, the developers could decide that they NEED to be domain experts
[02:53:19]<toastydeath> in which case they can innovate.
[02:53:32]<toastydeath> in most cases, they wind up with a shittier solution than exists elsewhere and is prone to more failures.
[02:53:35]<Jymmm> they're too stupid to innovate on that
[02:54:07]<Jymmm> "You know you're a dumbass... when you say that MD5 is encryption"
[02:54:17]<Gabe_W> so since Edison developed the light bulb and the use of DC current, then Tesla should of just said oh well with Alternating Current?
[02:54:49]<toastydeath> Gabe_W, that's not the issue at hand
[02:54:59]<Gabe_W> im confused now lol
[02:54:59]<toastydeath> Tesla wasn't wheelwright for wagons.
[02:55:11]<Jymmm> Edison stole the lightbulb, like he stole many things.
[02:55:17]<toastydeath> If tesla decided he wanted to make wheels, he had NO reason to think he could do it as well or better.
[02:55:21]<toastydeath> his wheels are going to be shit.
[02:55:24]<Jymmm> stole/boughtout, whatever =)

[02:55:51]<toastydeath> and if he wants to make a wagon wheel of merely equal quality
[02:55:58]<toastydeath> he has to invest a shitload of time learning how to do it properly
[02:56:14]<jdh> it's wheel as a concept, not wheel as a manufactured item.
[02:56:15]<toastydeath> when he can just go out and for far less cost, buy a damn wheel.
[02:56:27]<toastydeath> jdh, I'm using the literal example because it illustrates the concept
[02:56:47]<jdh> no it doesn't.
[02:56:56]<toastydeath> okay, what does it mean?
[02:57:00]<jdh> it illustrates something completely different.
[02:57:14]<toastydeath> actually, I don't want to discuss this anymore
[02:57:17]<Gabe_W> wow, look i was just complaining
[02:57:20]<jdh> it means a wheel is just round
[02:57:21]<Gabe_W> lets move on lol

[04:11:14]<Gabe_W> with sliding tops?
[04:11:56]<FinboySlick> Twist drills never go in where they're supposed to, apparently, so one needs to spot-drill, correct?
[04:12:11]<Gabe_W> what are you drilling?
[04:12:44]<FinboySlick> Relatively soft plastic, I think it's probably ABS.
[04:13:00]<Gabe_W> screw length drills or standard length
[04:13:06]<FinboySlick> I'm about 0.003" off on a 5/64 drill.
[04:13:16]<FinboySlick> Bog standard.
[04:13:20]<Gabe_W> thats not uncommon for plastic
[04:13:32]<Gabe_W> the head causes expansion
[04:13:34]<Gabe_W> heat*
[04:14:12]<FinboySlick> I'm off in terms of position, not diameter.
[04:14:30]<FinboySlick> (might be off there too, but it's not that big a deal)
[04:14:40]<Gabe_W> is it supported or does it flex?
[04:15:03]<Gabe_W> thats a small drill to not spot drill
[04:15:19]<Gabe_W> especially if its sticking out of the chuck more than an inch
[04:15:38]<FinboySlick> Gabe_W: Yeah. I was mostly just interested in what's going on there though.
[04:15:52]<FinboySlick> (this was a test hole)
[04:16:04]<Gabe_W> i could easily see this drill walking off
[04:16:56]<FinboySlick> The flex doesn't just mean my hole is in the wrong spot, right, it also means the hole isn't straight, doesn't it?
[04:17:24]<Gabe_W> it could be if the drill walks off i would bet its out of round and not straight
[04:18:18]<FinboySlick> Would spot drilling be enough to aleviate all of that?

[04:20:27]<Gabe_W> #2?
[04:20:35]<Gabe_W> you can't go higher than a #2
[04:20:41]<Gabe_W> #3 pilot is .125
[04:21:00]<FinboySlick> That's the smallest I got if that.
[04:21:23]<Gabe_W> you could just try making a small plunge in with a number three
[04:21:41]<FinboySlick> OK, the cone is enough, I don't need a wall?
[04:22:08]<Gabe_W> talking about .03 max just don't put the pilot in
[04:22:39]<Gabe_W> i can't guarantee that the drill won't come out of that though
[04:22:45]<Gabe_W> what's your feed rate?
[04:23:05]<Gabe_W> i presume this is on a CNC
[04:23:13]<FinboySlick> I calculated 16ipm at 6000rpm.
[04:23:15]<FinboySlick> Yes.
[04:23:23]<Gabe_W> way to fast
[04:23:34]<Gabe_W> of a feed rate
[04:24:02]<FinboySlick> Went through 3/4 of plastic like butter though.
[04:24:42]<Gabe_W> i feed a .125 through delrin at about 50ipm but its a screw length drill
[04:25:52]<FinboySlick> The rule of thumb formula says 5/64 * 10 ipm.
[04:26:06]<FinboySlick> at 3000 rpm.
[04:26:26]<FinboySlick> I can't spin at 3k, so I went 6k and doubled the feedrate.
[04:26:40]<Gabe_W> speeding the rpm's up is not a problem
[04:27:30]<FinboySlick> I don't want it to melt its way through though, it has to do some cutting.
[04:27:31]<Gabe_W> its the feed rate you want to drill it plastic well flex you want to let the drill cut not push
[04:28:04]<Gabe_W> i would say 10ipm sounds okay, keep the rpms where they are
[04:28:15]<FinboySlick> 10ipm at 6k?
[04:29:47]<Gabe_W> yea give that a try hell you would be save at 6 or 8 ipm also is this a production part?
[04:30:03]<FinboySlick> Nah, one of two.
[04:30:11]<FinboySlick> But I have some scraps I can test in.
[04:31:51]<FinboySlick> With my previous params, the hole is loose at the entry and snug at the end.
[04:32:00]<FinboySlick> That's what made me wonder what's going on.
[04:32:30]<Gabe_W> typically that means it got hot
[04:32:37]<Gabe_W> how sharp is your drill?
[04:32:53]<FinboySlick> Brand new, but it's hardware store grade.
[04:32:59]<Gabe_W> should be fine
[04:33:32]<Gabe_W> as long as it wasn't used on steel previously
[04:34:08]<Gabe_W> try slow that feed down, chuck that drill up as high as possible
[04:34:23]<Gabe_W> rigidity rigidity rigidity
[04:34:25]<Gabe_W> :)
[04:34:47]<FinboySlick> It's in a R11 collet.
[04:35:02]<Gabe_W> thats good
[04:35:05]<FinboySlick> I still need to have it stick out 3/4" though since this is a through hole.
[04:35:24]<Gabe_W> try not to chuck up on the flutes
[04:35:45]<Gabe_W> so as short as possible without chucking up on the flutes
[04:35:55]<FinboySlick> Makes sense.
[04:36:13]<FinboySlick> They're Ti coated, but in that grade, I don't think it's meaningful. Might make them a bit more slippery.
[04:36:54]<Gabe_W> titanium nitrated absolutely worthless unless working in high temperature's
[04:37:38]<FinboySlick> Makes one wonder why they bother in bits that'll be chucked in battery powered hand-tools.

[19:45:32]<FinboySlick> The hole is the reference.
[19:45:50]<FinboySlick> I'm off with respect to the spindle.
[19:46:03]<archivist> how can it be off if it is the reference :)
[19:46:21]<FinboySlick> Well, it's not in line with the spindle.
[19:46:29]<archivist> is this a spinning indicator
[19:46:33]<FinboySlick> No.
[19:47:06]<archivist> are you rotating the spindle to check if in line

[19:48:17]<FinboySlick> Then I line up the spindle to confirm the measurement and get 0 all around.
[19:49:04]<FinboySlick> Displacement needed to get the same measurement around the hole is what I consider being off by.
[19:49:31]<archivist> any x/y backlash that needs fixing
[19:50:16]<FinboySlick> Nope. And indicator feedback to change of direction is consistent with that claim.

[21:59:55]<Aero-Tec> a slit in the brass nut with a allen screw to bend part of the nut to take up the backlash
[22:00:23]<FinboySlick> That's pretty much the same thing.
[22:00:33]<Aero-Tec> but that will wear out quickly
[22:00:50]<Aero-Tec> a second nut would be much better
[22:01:13]<FinboySlick> That's why screw quality matters. That said, you could find some ballscrews and be pretty much done with it.

[22:07:35]<FinboySlick> It's pretty well behaved once you tame it.
[22:07:41]<Aero-Tec> but have bit the bullet and have started rewriting all Gcode and wanting to run 100% lxcnc
[22:08:09]<FinboySlick> Aero-Tec: I'm not sure you'll need that much re-writing, but then again, I don't know what you mostly do.
[22:08:10]<Tom_itx> shouldn't be much to rewrite
[22:09:01]<Aero-Tec> mach the subs are after the end of program code, m2 and m30
[22:09:13]<Aero-Tec> but lxcnc all subs are before
[22:09:24]<Aero-Tec> I run tons of subs
[22:10:10]<Aero-Tec> I like lxcnc subs better as you have conditional branches, mach does not
[22:10:51]<Aero-Tec> also lxcnc needs spaces between Gcode, mach did not
[22:11:25]<tjb1> hey r00t4rd3d
[22:11:34]<Aero-Tec> lxcnc is more fussy about Gcode layout and format
[22:12:20]<Aero-Tec> so no quick and simple lxcnc mill scale setup tricks?
[22:12:50]<Aero-Tec> also how does one get the INI file reread and use with out a lxcnc restart?
[22:13:21]<Aero-Tec> would like not have to re zero after every startup
[22:13:33]<Aero-Tec> no home switches
[22:13:51]<Aero-Tec> so manual zero setup
[22:15:53]<Aero-Tec> I do gun parts and snow mobile parts as well as other ATV parts and wepons

[22:16:40]<Aero-Tec> as well as other things
[22:17:17]<Aero-Tec> I have tons of ideas for airgun parts and accessories
[22:17:54]<FinboySlick> Aero-Tec: I'm not entirely sure why you'd need to reload the .ini for lack of home switches.
[22:18:12]<FinboySlick> You can just lxcnc to home at a certain position and be done.
[22:18:22]<Aero-Tec> setting up back lash
[22:18:35]<FinboySlick> That's a one-time deal.
[22:18:49]<FinboySlick> You measure backlash, you input it, and you're done.
[22:19:06]<Aero-Tec> need to test the backlash and reset it, but need the new backlash to be acted upon
[22:19:43]<Aero-Tec> what do you use to maesure back lash?
[22:19:58]<FinboySlick> An indicator usually does the job.
[22:20:11]<Aero-Tec> I use a dial and the machines DRO FOR THE AMOUNT OF BACHLASH
[22:20:15]<Aero-Tec> oops
[22:21:10]<Aero-Tec> so I see when the dial moves and go by the DRO of lxcnc to say just how much things have moved
[22:21:27]<Aero-Tec> but setting up scale will throw things off by a tad
[22:22:05]<Aero-Tec> the error amount my not be worth worrying about
[22:22:53]<FinboySlick> You could try to measure your backlash in the number of steps.
[22:22:54]<Aero-Tec> will see
[22:23:14]<Aero-Tec> how?
[22:23:30]<FinboySlick> Calculate how much is the distance of a step.
[22:23:42]<FinboySlick> (gearing, screw pitch, etc)
[22:24:03]<Aero-Tec> old china mill
[22:24:04]<FinboySlick> Then move by that much until the needl of your indicator moves.
[22:24:22]<FinboySlick> Well, it should still be a fairly straightforward value.
[22:24:24]<Aero-Tec> screw pitch not very good
[22:25:08]<Aero-Tec> they run some whacked value
[22:25:34]<Aero-Tec> different for all 3 axis
[22:26:11]<Aero-Tec> they did some custom in house thread matching of nut and screw
[22:26:49]<Aero-Tec> we are talking 1994 vintage
[22:27:10]<Aero-Tec> QC was not that great
[22:27:34]<Aero-Tec> china stuff now days seams much better
[22:27:57]<FinboySlick> Well, you have to make do with what you have, I guess. I'm not sure how to tell lxcnc to move just one step.
[22:28:35]<Aero-Tec> I will figure it out
[22:28:57]<FinboySlick> Might be easier to make it move 100 steps and measure that.
[22:28:59]<Aero-Tec> was hoping to have some kind of cool trick that would speed things up
[22:29:22]<FinboySlick> Or a full turn.
[22:29:34]<Aero-Tec> I used the step count from mach for lxcnc
[22:29:45]<FinboySlick> lxcnc sort of assumes that you'll know what your machine does ;)
[22:29:46]<Aero-Tec> but that seams off a tadd
[22:30:37]<Aero-Tec> lxcnc sure runs smoother and faster then mach
[22:31:04]<Aero-Tec> I can get the motors to run so much faster in lxcnc
[22:31:52]<Aero-Tec> in mach they would start to move fast when slow right down and stop with a hell of a growl
[22:32:22]<Aero-Tec> lxcnc they just spin so much faster and not miss a step
[22:33:10]<FinboySlick> Aero-Tec: Make sure you don't have surprise jitters on that PC though.
[22:33:18]<Aero-Tec> the step train must be much smoother
[22:33:34]<FinboySlick> Some will be smooth for hours and then have a jump in jitters.
[22:33:35]<Aero-Tec> how does one test that?
[22:34:07]<Aero-Tec> there is the jitter test
[22:34:22]<Aero-Tec> but not sure what to do with the test results
[22:34:51]<Aero-Tec> I know some of the programs to run when testing for jitter
[22:34:52]<FinboySlick> Yeah. Leave it running in the background at least 24h. Though this would be better if you were actually doing stuff on the PC at the same time.
[22:34:59]<Aero-Tec> like the graphics one
[22:35:09]-!- micges has quit [Quit: Leaving][22:35:11]<FinboySlick> Yeah.
[22:35:17]<Aero-Tec> do not remember the name or how to start it right now
[22:35:26]<FinboySlick> You on the livecd?
[22:35:29]<Aero-Tec> will have to look that up again
[22:35:42]<FinboySlick> It's called latency test if I remember, it should be in the linuxcnc menu.
[22:36:05]<Aero-Tec> I know how to fins and run that
[22:36:22]<FinboySlick> Just make sure there are no surprises.
[22:36:25]<Aero-Tec> it is the graphics program I will have to find
[22:36:42]<FinboySlick> Well, it's just a window with numbers on it.
[22:36:52]<Aero-Tec> so what do I do with the numbers after running the test?
[22:37:13]<FinboySlick> The setup wizard should ask for your maximum jitter.
[22:37:33]<Aero-Tec> the labling on the test results do not match the wizard
[22:38:16]<Aero-Tec> the test has several jitter results if I remember right
[22:38:32]<Aero-Tec> but no max jitter
[22:38:48]<Aero-Tec> wil have to run the test again
[22:39:11]<FinboySlick> It's the two numbers that only change upward.
[22:39:17]<FinboySlick>http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Latency-Test[22:39:25]<Aero-Tec> also I have added stuff to the INI manually and the wis will rewrite it all
[22:42:31]<FinboySlick> Aero-Tec: You can probably set it in the .ini directly, but I don't know how. My setup is simple enough that the wizard did everything I needed.
[22:43:06]<Aero-Tec> what about messing with SMI
[22:43:20]<Aero-Tec> is that still something one needs to do?
[22:43:45]<FinboySlick> I don't think there's much you can do about them beyond tweaking your bios.
[22:43:58]<FinboySlick> Whatever gets you the best jitter numbers.
[22:44:17]<Aero-Tec> there is a configuration setting you can do
[22:45:14]<Aero-Tec> anyone remember that the graphic program one runs when testing jitter?
[22:45:48]<Aero-Tec> it is run from command prompt, or terminal
[22:46:41]<Aero-Tec> guess one could do a new setup in the wiz and move the results over to the older setup
[22:47:48]<FinboySlick> Aero-Tec: You're not running the linuxcnc distro?
[22:48:00]<FinboySlick> If you are, it's right in the ubuntu menu.
[22:48:05]<FinboySlick> It's called latency test.
[22:48:42]<jp__> how do you get axis to preview the tool path?
[22:49:05]<jp__> nevermind just missing % sign
[22:55:11]<Aero-Tec> gl gears or something like that is the graphic program
[22:55:38]<Aero-Tec> there is the servo thread and the base thread
[22:56:14]<Aero-Tec> last I looked it is 9910
[22:56:20]<Aero-Tec> the base
[22:56:43]<Aero-Tec> servo was 8K somewhere in there
[22:57:00]<Aero-Tec> I would guess you use the base one
[22:57:24]<FinboySlick> Oh, glx-gears is just to see if putting your video card through opengl will cause a spike in jitter.
[22:57:33]<FinboySlick> It's not really related to lxcnc.
[22:57:43]<Aero-Tec> I thought I had set this computer up more
[22:57:51]<Aero-Tec> looks like it was not
[22:58:04]<Aero-Tec> will have to check it out more
[23:01:34]<Aero-Tec> the backlash was missing, will have to check the other setting to see if they are missing as well
[23:01:43]<Aero-Tec> but I would guess they are
[23:02:37]<Aero-Tec> FinboySlick: I installed the live cd in the computer so I do not need the live cd
[23:02:47]<Aero-Tec> will have to check the version
[23:03:08]<Aero-Tec> I may have updated and that is my the loss of settings info

[23:13:57]<FinboySlick> Makes your standard set of 13 from 1/16 to 1/14 pretty darn expensive.
[23:14:20]<FinboySlick> :s|1/14|1/4|
